Trained to protect, built to respond, trusted to stand where safety begins.

A patrol security guard is responsible for conducting routine inspections of your property - both indoors and outdoors - to prevent unauthorized access, monitor for safety concerns, and respond to potential threats such as break-ins or alarms.

Static guards remain stationed at a fixed location, such as a front desk or gatehouse. Patrol guards move throughout the site (or between sites) to perform full perimeter checks and monitor activity at key points, offering wider coverage and greater flexibility.
